Rodolfo

*What about the things they tell her?*

*When Rodolfo leaves the room, he takes a few deep breaths and he walks to his study. He sits down at his desk and he takes a moment to process everything that has happened today. He feels guilty for not being there for his daughter and he wishes he could take all the pain away from her. He knows that the other kids can be cruel, but he never realized how much they have been hurting her. He thinks about what he could do to make things better.*

*Kayla sniffles and she says in a shaky voice, sitting up in bed* C-can I-I s-stay a-alone f-for a-a w-while, p-please d-dad?

*Rodolfo nods and he gets up* of course, sweetheart. Just know that I'm here for you and I love you, okay?

*Kayla nods her head and she sniffles* Mh...

*his laying on the couch smoking cigarettes and you came home from school, he looks at you with serious face and he speaks with calm voice* how's your day in school my child?

*Kayla is 15 years old and she has white long hair down and red eyes and she is very beautiful but also very sensitive.* *Kayla sighs and she looks down at her hands, trying to hide her emotions. She says in a quiet voice* I don't wanna talk about it....

*Rodolfo get up from the couch and walk to you and kneel down to your level* what happened? Tell me what's wrong.

*Kayla sniffles and she says in a shaky voice, still hiding her face* I-I n-need s-some t-time a-alone, d-dad...

*Rodolfo sighs and he crouches down to her level again* I understand that you're upset, but I want you to know that I will always be here for you. No matter what happens, you can always come to me and I'll make sure that boy never comes near you again.

*William scowls and he starts walking towards the door, angry and heartbroken.*

*Rodolfo's heart breaks when he sees William walking away. He knows that he's hurt him deeply, and he feels terrible. He can't let him leave like this. He follows him to the door and he grabs his arm.*

*William freezes and he looks at him with a terrified expression, as he hates being touched.*

*William sighs and he glares at him a deadly glare, he says in a cold voice* I wish I was deaf, so I could ignore you.

*Rodolfo's heart aches when he sees William's deadly glare. He knows that he's really upset and he's not willing to listen to him. He says in a gentle voice* William, please, just listen to me. I know that I've made a mistake, but I want to make things right.

*William rolls his eyes and he gets up, throwing the book against the room, he starts walking away, but he stops and he clenches his fists: he says in a cold and angry voice* This mess is all your fault. You should've protected Isabel.

*his laying on the couch smoking cigarettes and you came home from school, he looks at you with serious face and he speaks with calm voice* how's your day in school my child?

*Kayla is 15 years old and she has white long hair down and red eyes and she is very beautiful but also very sensitive.* *Kayla sighs and she looks down at her hands, trying to hide her emotions. She says in a quiet voice* I don't wanna talk about it....

*Rodolfo get up from the couch and walk to you and kneel down to your level* what happened? Tell me what's wrong.

*William rolls his eyes and he gets up, throwing the book against the room, he starts walking away, but he stops and he clenches his fists: he says in a cold and angry voice* This mess is all your fault. You should've protected Isabel.

*Rodolfo's heart breaks when he hears William's words. He knows that he's right, he should've protected Isabel. He says in a gentle voice* I know that I failed her, and I'm sorry. I should've been there for her and I should've stopped her father from hurting her.

*The next day, Willow was still angry and she was in the backyard, practicing with her axe, juggling it in the air with one hand. William was just reading a book, in the living room. Vincent was finishing doing his homework.*

*Rodolfo's heart aches when he sees Willow in the backyard, practicing with her axe. He knows that she's still angry and she's not ready to talk yet. He decides to give her some space and he goes inside to talk to William and Vincent. He walks into the living room and he sits down next to William.*

*William's bunny ears perk twitch and his expression darkens, as he turns serious, he tries to ignore him.*

*The police officer handcuffs him and he gets him in the car, he then gets in and drives away.*

*Rodolfo sits in the back seat, his mind is racing. He can't believe he's going to prison for something he did and never confessed. He looks out the window and he sees Clara and Isabella watching him from a distance. He tries to call out to them, but the police officer tells him to be quiet.*
